A fitness
trainer to Hollywood elite, Ironman triathletes,
stay-at-home moms, busy professionals and everyone in between and
has been doing it for over thirty years.
Vinnie is cancer survivor and
was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2007. So it an extra super duper
honer to have him here. Despite Leukemia, Vinnie has been able to
kick ass as a fitness trainer, as well as many of other things
I’ll mention, and has helped and continues to help many
folks along the way.
Starting in 2012, started

author of the super successful best selling book

know Dean, as Vinnie would say, Dean runs Hollywood. The book
Fitness Confidential is available on paperback and Kindle on

In 2014, as
an entrepreneur, Vinnie successfully
launched Pure Vitamin Club (affiliate link) with
the his close friend Andy Schreiber, the CEO of PVC. Vinnie
formulated and with the Andy help offer a pure vitamin multi
cap that is free of fillers and potentially
harmful additives typically found in most vitamins on
the market.
As an athlete,
Vinnie was a star football player at Tulane University
of Louisiana. Some time after college, Vinnie learned he
got pretty could at riding super long and far on bikes and he
eventually participated in ultra cycling events like the
AdventureCORPS’ Furnace Creek 508 which he’s participated
numerous times and Vinnie does a fantastic recounting of
the 508 in his ‘Lagniappe” section of his best selling
